New Alpaca Armwarmers

I finally got to taking photos of my newest creations and got one listed today. I introduce to you these lovely grey and white alpaca arm-warmers. I found this lovely new line of yarns from Plymouth that use natural fibers in their natural colors only. I still can't help but rave about alpaca for it's light weight and superior warmth. So check them out if you have a minute in My Etsy store. Thanks to my mom for modeling them as well. I thought it would be good to show how they look on different hands.

Stuff & Things

I honestly couldn't think of a better title for today's post.
First of all, I would like to tell you that my good friend Amy at BeanPickleSprout is doing a giveaway for her birthday. I own 2 of her potholders and want more! Go check out her blog to get the scoop.
Second of all, I ran a felting wash the results of which I am excited to share with you very soon and have also been performing maintenance and practicing on my spinning wheel! I am terrible at it at the moment but practice makes perfect right? I am telling you all this because I don't want you to despair over my lack of blogging :-)
So go now to Amy's blog and enter her fantastic giveaway! I insist!

I love Alpaca!

I really do! and if you haven't experienced it's softness for yourself, then I recommend that you purchase one of my felted valentine alpaca bowls for your sweetheart this Valentine's Day! Here is my newest addition. Isn't she sweet?

Jinx

I just had to say something about consistency! Things got a bit busy around here this weekend. I have been knitting right through it and working on some needle felting as well and am really excited to reintroduce my key bowls! Just in time for Valentine's Day here is a Skeleton Key to My Heart Bowl. A good friend also passed on some wonderful alpaca to me and I have been knitting and felting up some wonderfully soft goodies out if it. Thanks as always for visiting and looking at my store. I would love input about my new line good or bad. Please feel free to comment!
